In the context of the 2024 elections in the United States, Trump’s running mate, James Vance, spoke at a campaign rally where he criticized Kamala Harris just hours after she was selected as the replacement for Joe Biden. He sarcastically questioned, “What has she done besides collecting a government paycheck for 40 years?”
Vance, the young Republican vice-presidential candidate, responded to the newly appointed presidential hopeful while addressing party supporters in Michigan.
Vance’s remarks come amidst a significant shift in the Democratic race, following Biden’s decision to step back from the campaign for the upcoming November 5 election. According to the New York Times, Trump’s team had already been preparing a series of campaign materials, including memes and signs targeting Harris. Trump has labeled her “completely incompetent” and “disastrous.”
During the Michigan rally, Vance acknowledged Harris’s role, sarcastically crediting her for her involvement during what he described as the “largest disaster of open borders” the country has faced. Earlier, he took to the social media platform X to accuse Harris of co-signing Biden’s open border policies and “fraudulent green policies,” which he claimed have driven up the cost of living and food.
Vance harshly criticized Biden, stating that he was the “worst president” he had ever witnessed, asserting that Harris had been present alongside him every step of the way. He expressed concerns over Biden’s mental capacity, saying the nation has suffered under a president unable to fulfill his duties.
As Biden officially announced his withdrawal from the presidential race, multiple Democratic campaign funds surged in support of Harris. In closing, Vance asserted, “President Trump and I are ready to save America, no matter who heads the Democratic ticket.”
